5 Deepavali Buffets To Light Up Your Celebration

As Deepavali is approaching, Malaysians are rushing to prepare for the special occasion. Just head over to Little India to witness the festivities. Nothing like an array of Indian sweets and colourful sarees to get you in the mood of celebration. The most wonderful part about living in Malaysia is being able to get together with family, friends and neighbors to celebrate festive holidays.

Another part of our culture that we all love and treasure is open house! No matter what festive holiday it is, Malaysians love to entertain guests at their home to share food, laughter and company. However, some people are not a big fan of the hard work that comes with hosting an open house. Though it is enjoyable, it also tends to be stressful and tiring.

No worries, there is always solution. Just because open houses are too much does not mean that we should swear off guests forever. There is a stress-free option for you and it is buffet. Here’s a list of deepavali buffets that you can bring your family and friends to.

Not to mention, guests can also expect appetizing Indian Baked Spices, whole Australian Lamb Tandoori With Jheenga Masala and desserts such as Laduu, Payasam and many more.

Priced at RM140 nett per adult, the Deepavali Dinner buffet at Pullman is sure to warm and light up your celebration! Happening only on the 6th of November, be sure to book yourself (and your family) a seat at the table.
